  • About the event

    Slow&Low: 
    Chicago Lowrider Festival 

    presented by 

    Chicago Urban Art Society
      
    Slow&Low is a curated one-day outdoor street-based festival celebrating Lowrider culture - master craftsmen, innovative mechanics, custom pinstripers, muralists and other enthusiasts who contribute to the overall visual aesthetics of a thriving Midwestern sub-culture. 

    Not to be confused with an auto show, this community-cultural event presents and explores notions of car culture as an authentic form of folk art in the public sphere - a way of expressing beauty, self-expression, and worth. 

    In 2018, over 12,000 people, young and old, walked a street filled with vintage and stylized automobiles and bicycles, danced to local deejay talent spinning hip hop, house, rockabilly, and soul, and watched as cars hopped and cruised and were entertained by mariachis, folkloric dancers and a marching band.
